Exploring Flip Flop memories and beyond: training recurrent neural networks with key insights
Cecilia Jarne
Training neural networks to perform different tasks is relevant across various disciplines. In particular, Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) are of great interest in Computational Neuroscience. Open-source frameworks dedicated to Machine Learning, such as Tensorflow and Keras have produced significant changes in the development of technologies that we currently use. This work aims to make a significant contribution by comprehensively investigating and describing the implementation of a temporal processing task, specifically a 3-bit Flip Flop memory. We delve into the entire modelling process, encompassing equations, task parametrization, and software development. The obtained networks are meticulously analyzed to elucidate dynamics, aided by an array of visualization and analysis tools. Moreover, the provided code is versatile enough to facilitate the modelling of diverse tasks and systems. Furthermore, we present how memory states can be efficiently stored in the vertices of a cube in the dimensionally reduced space, supplementing previous results with a distinct approach.
